Pop Pedagogies Lightning Talks

Please join us for our Pop Pedagogies Lightning Talks event featuring UBC community members who have developed innovative lesson plans, modules, or units that meaningfully integrate popular media (broadly defined) into teaching and learning on campus and beyond. Featured talks will also include projects funded by the 2025 Pop Pedagogies Award.

We will provide catered lunch for attendees, and talks will be livestreamed for those unable to make it in person.
